I only refer.. to these cultures because while im not an expert on any culture.. i do know that persians and romans and such didnt just pop up out of nowhere.. and from what i have learned about eqypt is that they did trade with other people.. that wernt of asian decent.. what they were labled at that time i do not know..
As i said before.. im not an expert,
but it dosent take a rocket scientist to regonize the traits of an indigenous african.
As far as wigs and etc.... this mummy did not have a wig on.. nor were there extensions... (it was in the report detailing the findings) and if there is something that you can straighten your hair with that will actually remain straight for millions of years after your death.. even when humidity (blk womans enemy) heat.. (hairs enemy) and time (human enemy) then.. certainly it would have been passed on.. from generation to generation... and wed still see remnants of it now.
And these skin complexions you speak of.... the only times ive seen milky brown complexions.. is when white men/asians were introduced into the equation.
San? huh... do you call your brothers and sisters by the term N!gg**... because the verbage means the same as that word does 2 us.
and I did come into contact with some bush people during my time in africa, and they were of light skin.... the Khoisan people (not san)
but I will also note, that I have seen not one description of these hunting and gathering groups prior to the portugeese bludgering the women, and calling them animals.. "dark bush people"...
how else do you think they figured out that the san women's labia minora was larger than that of portugeese women, and that thier breasts were engorged because they were of a barbarian sexual nature.
Not to mention that these people were herders, who herded cattle..
supplying the dutch as early as mid 1600's.
Which brings us to the reason of thier decline..
smallpox... devastated the people, and the bushmen died.. most went on to become farmers, or slaves, and some intermarried with the dutch... yes intermarried.
So before we start citing the oldest known people of south africa...
know that there was a kodak moment.. to see what these people looked like.. but kodak was a million years away.. all we have are the works and first hand enocunter descriptions of these people.. and they were noted by the dutch and the prortugeese.... to be copper in complexion.. even sketches depict them quite dark.
When at that point in time.. the portugeese themselves were of a very roasted complexion.
Any other examples of naturally light skinned africans untainted by white men?
**I like debating.. i love challenges, my cockyness is not of rage.. but excitement.. for finally an interesting topic to respond on..... no dissrespect.. just a fair trade of knowlege.**

Mad Skillz said:PoeticManifesta said:What is African hair suppose to look like? Hair form varies among indigenous Africans so not all Africans have the 'kinky' type hair form found among the stereotypical African. Hair can range from wavy to spiral form found among the San peoples of southern Africa. Those indigenous Black populations who remained in the tropics also maintained this diversity inherited from their African ancestors. Although of note, wavy hair found among Africans tends to be thicker than the wavy hair seen among non-Africans. Phenotype and skin tone is also more genetically diverse among Africans than any other group of people on earth ...which is another subject I won't get into at the moment.
Now, back to your question. It is common knowledge among the enlightened that the ancient Kemetians commonly 1) wore wigs and extensions 2) used embalming materials which is known to cause the hair to appear straight. Now IF INDEED the mummy is actually that of Nefertiti then the logical explanation for the appearance of the hair has been provided.
Again, you failed to address my last post. However I will retort:The Greek, Roman and Persian colonization were all after the dynasty. So why is there such a fixation with these alien dynasties that contributed absolutely nothing to the original Black civilization. And why do you insist on inserting the Romans and other foreigners into the 18th dynasty of Nefertiti's reign which is hundreds of years before any Greek, Roman or Persian ever stepped foot in Kemet? Are you confusing Nefertiti with Cleopatra?
What is there to think about?
If there is one area where Black people remain aggressively surpressed, it is the area of ancient history. What makes it difficult for whites to admit is they have come to the premature conclusion that there is social equality between Blacks and whites in general. And to many, it is feasible to assume that social equality equals acceptabilitiy and power/influence in all facets of society; so there is reason for them to maintain that scientific and academic institutions hold onto their pseudo and obsolete ideologies that are decidedly rooted in racism against Black people - therefore there's no need to question the exploitive nature of his-tory in order to uncover suppresed facts. However what burns me up is the ill-informed who may not be well versed in a particular subject such as this are so quick to blindly perpetuate the same dubious and scholarly dishonest teachings of those who are attempting to minimize or relegate the true history of the Black race; nor do they even try to objectively question, investigate or debunk what is falsely being presented as truth of fact.
It's very sad there are some people today who still hold the white man's word as the undeniable truth while the Black man's word is looked upon with doubt or somehow seen as flawed. Sad indeed.
The birth of Egyptology was based on racism with roots heavily intertwined in white supremacy. Perhaps some here should thoroughly investigate why this is before making erroneous comments.
Over the years Egyptologist have participated in foul play involving Kemetian mummies. Others have deliberately forged and defaced Kemetian statues and antiquities for reasons mentioned above. Yet for some people there is no outraged, however they take out their misguided anger against those who they believe are "blackanizing" the history books.
